Non-Invasive Multi-Modal Neuromonitoring in Adults Undergoing Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation
PROJECT SUMMARY Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) is a last resort procedure for patients with acute heart or lung failure. The procedure carries significant risk of brain injury, yet no brain monitoring is performed, partly due to significant risks of current neuroimaging technologies. Thus, the cause of these injuries, their relation with ECMO settings, and how they can be prevented are unknown. A critical need exists for non-invasive techniques to mon- itor brain physiology at the bedside for ECMO patients and for strategies to minimize brain injury. Our objective is to develop a means to find predictors of neurologic functional outcome based on severity of injury assessment in…
